Characterization of an Immunosuppressive Colon Cancer Cells' Factor Derived From
The colon cancer cell line, HT29, produces a soluble substance (HT29 factor) that blocks mitogeninduced T cell proliferation and the production of interleukin 2 (IL 2). Inhibition of T cell proliferation by the HT29 factor is reversible and is not due to a decline in cell viability or an alteration in the kinetics of T cell proliferation. I t occurs even when the HT29 factor is added only 24 hr...
متن کاملThe liver is a site for tumor-induced myeloid-derived suppressor cell accumulation and immunosuppression.
Tumor-induced immunosuppression plays a key role in tumor evasion of the immune system. A key cell population recognized as myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) contributes and helps orchestrate this immunosuppression. MDSC can interact with T cells, macrophages, and natural killer cells to create an environment favorable for tumor progression. In various tumor models, their presence at high...
متن کاملPartial Purification of a Potent Immunosuppressive Factor Excreted from Leishmania major Promastigote and Amastigote
Recent scientific evidence indicates that distinct patterns of susceptibility in BALB/c mice to Leishmania major infection are attributable to the differential expansion of distinct CD4+ T-cell subsets and their cytokines production. Production of the Th1 cytokine IFN-g is associated with resistance, whereas production of the Th2 cytokines IL-4 and IL-10 are associated with extreme susceptibili...
متن کاملSomatostatin is an immunosuppressive factor in aqueous humor.
PURPOSE To detect the presence of somatostatin (SOM) in normal aqueous humor and to characterize its immunosuppressive activity. METHODS Fresh rabbit aqueous humor was assayed for SOM by competitive ELISA. Primed T cells stimulated through their T-cell receptor (TCR) were treated with SOM at concentrations that ranged the level of SOM found in normal aqueous humor. The T cells were assayed fo...
متن کاملthe aesthetic dimension of howard barkers art: a frankfurtian approach to scenes from an execution and no end of blame
رابطه ی میانِ هنر و شرایطِ اجتماعیِ زایش آن همواره در طولِ تاریخ دغدغه ی ذهنی و دل مشغولیِ اساسیِ منتقدان و نیز هنرمندان بوده است. از آنجا که هنر در قفس آهنیِ زندگیِ اجتماعی محبوس است، گسترش وابستگیِ آن با نهاد ها و اصولِ اجتماعی پیرامون، صرفِ نظر از هم سو بودن و یا غیرِ هم سو بودنِ آن نهاد ها، امری اجتناب ناپذیر به نظر می رسد. با این وجود پدیدار گشتنِ چنین مباحثِ حائز اهمییتی در میان منتقدین، با ظهورِ مکتب ما...
